Temperature determines the hotness or coldness. The surface temperature of Canopus is 7350 K. The surface temperature of Vega is 9602 K. Because the surface temperature of Vega is greater than Canopus, Vega is hotter.

Brightness is determined by the star's magnitude. The apparent magnitude of Canopus is (-0.72) and that of Vega is (0.03). we know that, lesser the magnitude, brighter is the star. Hence, Canopus is brighter.

Vega is hotter but Canopus is brighter. This is because, brightness depends on the star's distance and size of the star as well other than the factor temperature.

A car is behind a truck going 25 m/s on the highway. The car’s driver looks for an opportunity to pass, guessing that his car ca
user100 [1]

Answer:

No he should not attempt the pass

Explanation:

Let t be the time it takes for the car to pass the truck. The driver should ONLY attempt to pass when the distance covered by himself plus the distance covered by the oncoming car is less than or equal 400 m (a near miss)

At acceleration of 1m/s2 and a clear distance of 10 + 20 + 10 = 40 m, we can use the following equation of motion to estimate the time t in seconds

s = at^2/2

40 = 1t^2/2

t^2 = 80

t = \sqrt{80} = 8.94 s

Within this time frame, the first car would have traveled a total distance of the clear distance (40m) plus the distance run by the truck, which is

8.94 * 25 = 223.6m

So the total distance traveled by the first car is 223.6 + 40 = 263.6m

The distance traveled by the 2nd car within 8.94 s at rate of 25m/s is

8.94 * 25 = 223.6 m

So the total distance covered by both cars within this time frame

223.6 + 263.6 = 487.2m > 400 m

So no, he should not attempt the pass as we will not clear it in time.
